“…It is assumed that the studies involving these questionnaires are still being elaborated on or are in the peer-review process. This means that the titles of this cluster are articles about distance learning and training and the positive and negative impacts [54,94,[103][104][105][106][107], about leadership [77,102], about physical questions [89,101,108], about coronavirus [78,81,84,89] and about management [109]. Finally, Cluster 3 (blue) represents the studies about Canada analyzed in the previous section.…”

COVID-19 and Disruption in Management and Education Academics: Bibliometric Mapping and Analysis

2020

COVID-19, What to do now? This issue has had devastating effects in all domains of society worldwide. Lockdowns, the lack of freedom and social distancing meant the closure of a country’s entire activity. Having effects at all levels, beside incalculable ones in health, it is argued that scientific activity in education, business, economics and management suffered some of the most drastic impacts of this pandemic. This study aims to map the scientific literature in these areas in the context of COVID-19 and analyze its content through bibliometrics, which made it possible to highlight the scarcity of studies on the topic, namely empirical studies on the effects of this pandemic on scientific research and teaching/education. The results show there is a lack of peer-reviewed publications on this topic, with the studies covered (93) via the threads used revealing only 28 articles coming within the proposed objective. The bibliometrics corroborates that shortage. Finally, the contributions and implications for theory and practice are presented, followed by the limitations and suggestions for future research.

“…However, the developing and underdeveloped countries cannot ensure such online education for all, more specifically, in many countries, minority groups and ethnic groups get deprived of such advanced facilities. Some students prefer online learning because they do not need to rush to campus [11] with the advances of communication technologies [12] but the students of remote or hilly areas are not adequately privileged. So, geographical inclusion is needed where the students of all regions and all communities may receive equity in inclusive education regardless of the location of the community, but this has not been implemented always [13].…”

This paper depicts the current panorama of virtual learning of the tribal students in Bangladesh with the constrictions and possible solutions. The study aimed to deal with the major issues about tribal students’ online education by bringing out the key restraints of their distance learning and the possible solutions. The researchers followed a mixed method using a 5-point Likert Scale to point out the learner sensitivities, an online Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to know specific information from all the tribes who participated in the study. Additionally, four different questions were also set for multiple response analyses. The results suggested that the tribal students have not agreeably received adequate facilities such as technological support, university funding, departmental encouragements, or monetary benefits from the quota system in the current pandemic (COVID-19) time to attend virtual learning sessions though they expect arrangements and future steps for academic learning. All institutions also could not provide them adequate opportunities to attend online classes. In conclusion, the study proposed some imperative measures for example, inclusion of flipped classroom, introducing blended learning henceforth, revising quota facilities, adequate electricity support and internet connection, to help the tribal students as they should not get deprived.

“…The third advantage is that it has the capacity to educate a very large group of people (from nomads to inmates). Kılınç, Yazıcı, Günsoy, & Günsoy (2020) states that distance education can have important functions in terms of decreasing the costs, providing education to the masses, increasing the income and welfare level especially in populated countries. Khan& Williams (2006) argue that distance learning platforms are powerful tools to reduce poverty and increase the social welfare of low-income people, the disabled, long-term patients, minorities and similar disadvantaged groups.…”

The purpose of this study is to determine the opinions of teachers on the application of the Orff-Schulwerk approach in online lessons. A qualitative descriptive model was employed in the study.The data were obtained through online course observations and interviews carried out with teachers adopting the Orff-Schulwerk approach. The data were analyzed by qualitative content analysis method. It was found that videoconferencing programs in online lessons suppress the sound, and connection and synchronization problems cause many pedagogical disadvantages for Orff-Schulwerk practices. It was determined that these technological limitations impede group studies in all aspects of music, movement, instrument, and improvisation. Teachers adopting Orff initially followed a reductionist approach by reducing their goals and plans in order to find solutions to these problems. As the process continued, they included additional technologies to online lessons, organized preparation activities before the lessons, and changed the teaching methods and strategies used for the lessons. Furthermore, they created ideas to overcome the limitations of technology and recorded preparation videos. Teachers further stated that the process has advantages such as interacting with the whole world, creating many more and more methodical lesson materials, analyzing with didactic lessons, and developing their own creativity. They stated that technology needs to be developed more in order to carry out Orff-Schulwerk lessons online, and that they would prefer to implement this approach face to face with the conditions at hand for efficiency; however, a time in which they can use the technology more has started.
